This Too Shall Pass — But Only If You Let It Move

🦋 Change has a way of announcing itself through the body before the mind can make sense of it.

Lately, I’ve been sitting with the feelings that arise during transition — not trying to fix them, suppress them, or rush through them, but noticing how they move through my body when observed from a steadier place. An observer state. A quieter vantage point.

When it's time to move emotion through your body and let it transmute through Earth.

I hold a personal intention to retain inner peace and balance, aiming to operate at a frequency higher than the emotional fluctuations that naturally surface during times of uncertainty. Not by bypassing emotion — but by allowing it to pass without becoming it.

What I’ve noticed is this: the emotional “drops” are less frequent now. The duration is shorter. The intensity passes more quickly.

Anxiousness. Uncertainty. Frustration. That moment where everything feels too heavy and the only impulse is to sit still and let the tears come.

This Too Shall Pass - let it be for a moment 🧘🏽‍♂️

These states still appear — but they no longer stay as long.

One of the anchors I return to is remembering that life unfolds for reasons that aren’t always visible in the moment. I’ve lived long enough to recognise that I rarely see what is coming — and that many of the things that once felt disruptive eventually revealed insight, opportunity, or even quiet synchronicity working in my favour.

The more I allow life to move, the more life meets me halfway.

“This too shall pass” may sound cliché, but it becomes profoundly practical when things feel like they’re unravelling beyond your control. The invitation is not to grip tighter — but to loosen the idea that things must look a certain way, unfold on a specific timeline, or conform to a fixed expectation.

Let life flow.

And it will flow — often more intelligently than we could plan.

🎋 A grounding micro-practice for moments of overwhelm

When the intensity rises:

• Move your body gently — even a small shift counts

• Breathe intentionally, lengthening the exhale

• Let your eyes land on two or three tangible objects around you

• Stand barefoot on the softest ground you can find - grass, soil, sand....

• Sink your awareness downward and allow the Earth to carry what you no longer need to hold

A micro-ritual is a moment in time, regardless of your activity, where you get to be you, to be with you, for you. Your well-being is not a session for an hour once a week or once a day; it is the time you direct your focus in every moment of that day.

You are not required to solve everything in the moment.

Sometimes the most skilful act is to buy yourself time — to let the emotional wave pass before refocusing your energy toward what you know will support you next.

Then… wait.
